Started bankrupt process, had to turn my car over today, had a meltdown at work and left early. Guess I need to just look at this as things can only go up from here right

I'm so sorry that you are going through that process. I've been there and it is tough.

But, yes.....just think of it as a clean slate to start fresh.....

I'm sorry. I know this must be really hard. It's my worst fear but you can put things back together. Many people have gone through this. You can get through it too. Hang in there.

I'm sorry to hear this. I'm at the point of bankruptcy myself. I hope things get better for you soon. It can be very discouraging in the sense of trying to stay positive. Best of luck to you.
Thanks for this!

Don't look back, it will eat you up. I know it sounds trite, but we can't change what has happened. I've always looked back with regret and finally realized I can't change the fact that I made a bunch of bad decisions and basically self destructed. I quit jobs on a whim, passed out in my driveway (as a 40 year old adult), drove my car when I didn't remember how I got home, endangered my family and injured myself by taking stupid risks, and destroyed some of my possessions in fits of rage. My past alcohol use was a huge problem for me and it clouded my judgment since I didn't realize (at the time) that I was also BP.

It really is a battle we all fight every day. I just try to be mindful and move forward from here. As time moves on, things will get a little bit better in small amounts until we all realize the negative stuff is behind us.
Thanks for this!

I'm sorry you're going through this. I've been there and it is tough. It will get better, but sometimes it takes a while. When I was going through this I tried to keep reminding myself that the best way out is always through. I hope things look up for you soon.

I am sorry to hear you have to go though this. We did our second bankruptcy this year. I know how you feel, it is a low point, but yes, there is no place to go now but up. Wishing you the best. Try not to beat yourself up too much over this.

Thank you all for your encouragement... I let myself have my moment yesterday and moving on...your right about not looking back. One step at a time, one day at a time
